011, P = .000, and P  less then  .02, respectively). A comparison showed that parallel orientation and an absence of calcifications were found more frequently in metastatic thyroid nodules than in primary thyroid malignancies (P = .04, P  less then  .000, respectively). However, histogram parameters and K-TIRADS were not significantly different between primary thyroid malignancies and metastatic lesions.There is a limit to replacing cytopathological confirmation with texture analysis for the differentiation of thyroid nodules detected by PET-CT. Therefore, cytopathological confirmation of nodules appearing malignant on US images cannot be avoided for an ultimate diagnosis of metastasis.
Restless legs syndrome (RLS), known as a kind of neurological disease, is prevalent but easy to be ignored. Studies have demonstrated that massage therapy can effectively reduce the symptoms of patients with RLS and improve their quality of life. However, the efficacy of massage therapy for RLS is still controversial. Therefore, this protocol aims to evaluate the reliability of massage therapy in treating RLS in a thorough way.

We will search relevant randomized controlled trials from Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Chongqing VIP, CNKI, Wanfang, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, PubMed, and EMBASE, when publication status and language are not considered and the time limit ends with September 6, 2020. Two experienced researchers will use RevMan V.5.3 software to perform the selection of literature, data collection, data analysis and synthesis separately. Besides, the quality of trials involved in this study will be measured with the Cochrane bias risk assessment tool.

This protocol will be applied to carry out a systematic evaluation of the massage therapy purposed to treat RLS for its effectiveness and safety.

The review will provide a credible evidence suggesting whether massage therapy is a reliable intervention for RLS.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a rapidly spreading disease that has been in a public health emergency of international concern since its outbreak in 2020. Due to the complex pathogenesis and susceptibility of COVID-19, many commonly used drugs for the treatment of COVID-19 have not shown excellent clinical effects. Traditional Chinese medicine has a long clinical history of preventing and treating this respiratory infectious disease. Maxingshigan Decoction (MXSG) is widely used in China to treat COVID-19. However, there is no comprehensive and systematic evidence on the effectiveness and safety of Maxingshigan Decoction.

PubMed, EMBASE, Clinical Trials, the Cochrane Library, Sino Med, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure up to September 2020. This study only screens clinical randomized controlled trials on MXSG for COVID-19 to evaluate its efficacy and safety. PIK-III cost Data were extracted by 1 investigator and checked by an independent investigator. Review Manager 5.3 software was used for the data analysis. The dichotomous data is represented by relative risk, and the continuous is expressed by mean difference or standard mean difference, eventually the data is synthesized using a fixed effect model or a random effect model depending on whether or not heterogeneity exists.

The time from a positive diagnosis to a negative result of 2 consecutive nucleic acid tests (not on the same day), cure rate. The results of our research will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.

The purpose of this systematic review is to provide new evidence for the effectiveness and safety of Maxingshigan decoction in the treatment of COVID-19.

CRD42020211962.This retrospective study investigated the effect of Yiqi-Huoxue Decoction (YQHXD) on blood pressure (BP) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).A total of 72 patients with BP following AIS who received routine treatment were included in this retrospective study. Of those, 36 patients received YQHXD and were assigned to a treatment group. The other 36 patients were allocated to a control group. All patients were treated for a total of 4 months. The outcomes were assessed by systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score and Barthel index scale (BIS). All outcomes were measured after 4-month treatment.After treatment, all subjects in the treatment group showed greater improvements in SBP (P  less then  .05), DBP (P  less then  .05), NIHSS (P  less then  .05) score, and BIS (P  less then  .05) than those of patients in the control group. In addition, the safety profile is similar in both groups.The findings of this study demonstrated that YQHXD may benefit on BP in patients with AIS. Future studies should focus on warranting the current results.Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be a tool that allows the observation of structural injury patterns after cooling. The aim of this study was to determine the early pattern of brain injury in the MRIs of infants with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) after cooling and to search for any clinical factors related to abnormal MRI findings.The study retrospectively recruited 118 infants who were treated with therapeutic hypothermia (TH) between 2013 and 2016.Forty-three patients had normal brain MRI, and 75 had abnormal brain MRI findings. The TH-treated infants with abnormal brain MRI readings showed significantly more clinical seizures and the use of additional antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) than the normal MRI group. As a long-term outcome, more lesions in the basal ganglia and thalamus, posterior limb of internal capsule, or severe white matter lesions were associated with abnormal neurodevelopmental outcomes at 18 to 24 months of age.A higher frequency of clinical seizures and AED use were related to abnormal brain injury on MRI. A significant risk for poor long-term outcomes was found in the abnormal brain MRI group.Stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a highly heterogeneous subtype of lung cancer. There are still no widely accepted prognostic parameters for stage III NSCLC. In this study, we evaluated the prognostic value of the standardized uptake value (SUV) max ratio of primary tumor to lymph node (T/N SUV max) and its correlation with various hematological parameters.Patient data were reviewed from the hospital database retrospectively. The T/N SUV max ratio was calculated by dividing the SUV max of the primary tumor by the maximal SUV max of the lymph node. The cut-off value for T/N SUV max ratio was determined by receiver operating characteristic analysis. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method with the Long-rank test. P value 1.96 were defined as low risk patients. The median event (recurrence or progression) free survival was 24.3 months (95% confidence interval 12.0-36.6) for low risk patients, and 9.2 months (95% confidence interval 6.1-12.4) for high risk patients (P = .0015). There was an inverse correlation between T/N SUV max and hemoglobin concentration and mean corpuscular volume (rho -0.
